"kill…"
Arrow Soul led his soldiers towards Dongwo Post Station. Although Zhu Yougui had reacted and ordered his soldiers to fire arrows, the cavalry was too fast…
Before the archers on the city walls could even fire a second arrow, the Archer Spirit had already led his cavalry to the city walls…
Zhu Yougui issued several military orders in succession, but in the chaos, very few of them were actually transmitted...
The city gate instantly became a battleground; it was a crucial point to fight for, otherwise the subsequent troops would have no chance of breaching the gate...
"Charge! Block the city gates, even if you have to use corpses..."
Zhu Yougui shouted frantically, but his orders were immediately drowned out by the sounds of battle…
Countless soldiers charged forward, one after another, trying to close the city gates. When their comrades were killed, others would immediately move their bodies aside and use them to prop up the gates, continuing to close them...
Click click...
Two sounds of metal breaking rang out…
The next moment, Li Zhu, wielding the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, had already severed the two iron locks on the city gate…
He stood beside the city gate and roared loudly.
"Brothers, kill them! Dongwoyi has fallen! Hunt down the rebels..."
As Li Zhu's voice rang out, Zhu Yougui nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. All he had to do was occupy one city gate. How could the city have fallen?
But once the defeat was set in, it was difficult to reverse. As more and more people rushed into Dongwoyi, the defenders' confidence was crumbling little by little...
"General Ding, gather the troops and return to Taiyuan Prefecture..."
Seeing that defeat was inevitable, continuing to struggle would be futile. It was better to preserve their strength, return to Taiyuan, and gather superior forces to defend Taiyuan to the death...
"I...hate it..."
Zhu Yougui roared to the sky. Xun Daoren's arrival had brought a great start, but in an instant everything vanished. How could he accept this?
"Your Highness, Yang Shihou's troops have already defected. I think Li Zhu even led the Qin City garrison to attack the city. This defeat is well-deserved..."
Ding Hui said with a dim look in his eyes, "Just a moment ago I was full of confidence and ready to attack others, but before I could even set off, my base was raided. Not everyone can understand this feeling..."
"Walk…"
Zhu Yougui gritted his teeth and said, he just couldn't understand why Yang Shihou had betrayed him. He had given Yang Shihou so much money, and the soldiers he had raised with his own money had turned out to be the ones who delivered the fatal blow...
Zhu Yougui fled Dongwoyi in a sorry state, fortunately suffering few casualties and preserving his strength. In fact, the number of people who died was less than the number who died in the last attack on Qincheng...
He glanced back at Dongwoyi, gritting his teeth in hatred.
I'll be back sooner or later...
At this moment, Li Zhu had already arrived at the city wall and shouted loudly as he watched Zhu Yougui flee in a disheveled state.
"Hey, don't run away! Did you pee your pants in fear?"
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, Zhu Yougui's face turned extremely ugly. This was too humiliating!
Who is that?
In the distance, a figure approached like lightning, dressed in white robes and riding a white horse…
"Why does this look so familiar? This outfit is pretty flashy, isn't it?"
Wang Yanzhang couldn't help but say with a puzzled expression, thinking to himself that this display of arrogance deserved full marks...
"Could it be to rescue Zhu Yougui?"
Zhao Feng asked in confusion!
"They're definitely heading towards Zhu Yougui, but they show no sign of stopping..."
Li Zhu said, quite puzzled!
He then focused his gaze and quickly remembered someone: the legendary White-Clad General Chen Qingzhi…
But wasn't he sent to Youzhou by me? How did he end up here...?
"Your Highness, look over there! Princess Nazha has gone after Zhu Yougui..."
Upon hearing that Nazha had gone to chase after the enemy, Li Zhu's expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected Nazha to be so disobedient, charging forward all by herself...
"Arrow Soul, Zhao Feng, Wang Yanzhang, lead the cavalry and charge with me..."
Then, a shocking scene unfolded outside Dongwo Post Station: three cavalry units, totaling nearly 20,000 men, charged towards Zhu Yougui's army...
Zhu Yougui was completely dumbfounded. Where did this white-clad general come from?
Where did the Xiliang cavalry come from?
Why does Li Zhu have so many cavalry?
"Chen Qingzhi of Youzhou..."
"Xiliang Nazha..."
Hearing the two shout, Li Zhu felt that something was missing if he didn't shout back, so he also yelled loudly.
"Li Zhu, the Crown Prince of the New Tang Dynasty..."
"Master Xun, save me..."
Zhu Yougui sensed something was wrong. Infantry had no advantage over cavalry, especially when on the run, they hadn't even had time to set up a defensive formation...
The three cavalry units were like three sharp knives piercing into Zhu Yougui's ranks. Although the soldiers fought desperately, it was all in vain...
With his shout, Xun Daoren finally appeared, followed by Qinglu…
The moon wheel flew out and cleared out the soldiers around Zhu Yougui in the blink of an eye, finally easing Zhu Yougui's tense expression. With Xun Daoren there, at least he wouldn't die...
"Useless! I mobilized so many people, and you couldn't even hold out for three days..."
The first thing Xun Daoren did upon appearing was to give Zhu Yougui a severe scolding, as if he were reprimanding a dog…
Zhu Yougui felt disgusted, but his life now depended entirely on Xun Daoren's decision, so he could only weakly defend himself.
"Please calm down, senior. I never expected Yang Shihou to betray me; it was all an accident..."
"He can't even win over his own people, he's truly useless..."
Xun Daoren refused to listen to his explanation. He had mobilized so many resources to achieve the current situation, and now he was back on the defensive. This further diminished his prestige within the Heavenly Dao Alliance, which would affect his influence within the alliance…
"Master Xun, we meet again..."
Li Zhu, wielding the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow, rushed towards Xun Daoren. He was surprised to see Xun Daoren reprimanding Zhu Yougui as if he were scolding his own dog. After all, Zhu Yougui was the heir apparent of Jin, yet he was being treated with such disrespect…
"Li Zhu... how dare you show your face in front of me..."
Xun Daoren saw Li Zhu's murderous intent and said!
"Ouch... I'm so scared... You're going to beat me to death..."
Li Zhu feigned fear and mocked, which enraged Xun Daoren to the point that he almost killed Li Zhu on the spot. However, reason told him that now was not the time; with Xuan Tian present, he could not truly kill Li Zhu…
Another point is that he is very wary of Nangong Qing. Last time in Luoyang, he was defeated by Nangong Qing's men, and he doesn't want to live a life of constant pursuit from now on...
"Kid, don't be so arrogant..."
Xun Daoren coldly threatened!
"What do you know, you old codger? I'm so young and I already have such a position, why can't I be arrogant?"
Li Zhu retorted without giving any face whatsoever!
Xun Daoren's chest heaved with anger, and Li Zhu couldn't help but continue his mockery.
"Oh, you can't handle this? Want me to give you something even more outrageous..."
